Who’ll be the first?

Hurricane Sandy is bearing down on the East Coast of the US. Apart from Virginia (which is a toss-up), all the other states in its path vote reliably Democratic.

If Sandy does wreak a large amount of damage, I wonder who will be the first crazy preacher to suggest that this is god’s punishment for the liberal leanings of the people in that region, their support for same-sex marriage, and their pro-choice views.

Which makes no sense whatsoever (not that Infowars does), since the states that have been most affected – NY, NJ, CT, PA, MD, and WV – all tend to be blue states who would likely go for Obama in the election.
